Doug Marshall plays "Come Sweet Death" by J.S. Bach, arr. by Virgil Fox

[@rr7firefly]

We live in a culture where the sentiment presented by this beautiful composition seems completely unimaginable. But it is very possible that at some point in the future we will see that ultimate transition as a passage to a better world. This music certainly carries a message of reassurance. Thank you, Mister Marshall, for making your beautiful rendition and sharing it. When we are old and frail we may embrace that mindset as the pressures of physical limitations and environmental disaster close in on us.

One of my favourite pieces...."for the day of death is better than the day of birth...."

Doug, thank you this is my favorite Virgil piece especially on the monster at Wanamakers.

Bach when he came to face the inevitable the withering the tiring and of his earthly she'll he had lived the kind of a life that permitted him to look his maker right between the eyes and say the words of this sublime song we are about to hear Come sweetest death come blessed rest and gently lead me on Virgil fox

Brings tears to my eyes.

This man squeezes every ounce of emotion out of this hauntingly beautiful music. Bring out the white and aubergine calla lilies.

What an outstandingly beautiful arrangement Virgil Fox made of this tune, and you have played it exquisitely. Thank you very much for this.

Organpower, I really enjoy the sound quality of this video!

[@stevensmlth9074]

You have done Virgil proud once again Doug! Your registration and artistry is just as stunning as that which Virgil gifted the "King of Instruments."

As I was listening to this,without reading the description, I though this sounds so much like Virgil Fox(had me also in tears). Then I read the description and now know why. Absolutely beautiful.

Beautiful version sir !! Soul stirring - I love it when it rattles the windows !!

[@williammitchell1864]

Jacob Hancock, that would be the 32' Contre Bombarde in the pedal that gives this wonder

[@Engineer9736]

Amazing

[@davidbeattie1366]

[@swarfrat311]

A excellent performance! Virgil Fox would be pleased. Very emotional. Thank you.

One of the best interpretation I've ever heard!

Dear Mr. Marshall, thank you for another great performance of an utterly beautiful melody! I especially like the powerful registration towards the end and hope you'll upload more new music from time to time. Since I read about the fire in Middle Collegiate Church in NYC I have been asking myself what happened to your organ. Is it still playable? Do you have any information about it? Best wishes
